This option is available when you have multiple shipments that can be combined on the same truck for either pickup or delivery. Consolidation allows you to utilize the effectiveness of combining multiple modes of transportation to reduce the overall transportation costs. Typically, the additional cost incurred for the additional pickup or delivery is less than the total cost of shipping multiple shipments as LTL.
